a case report of anti-HCG antibodies in a 22 year old male on HCG therapy for idiopathic hypothalamic hypogonadism.  the Result was an autoimmune hypothyroidism as a result of the anti-HCG.

Anti-HCG antibodies developed in long-term HCG therapy.  Implications in autoimmune disease or resistance?

HCG therapy induced anti-HCG antibodies.  No binding was found to TSH.  But, the concern is the binding to TSH, LH, FSH and resultant hypothyroidism or hypogonadism.

Interesting article.  "Small metabolite" of HCG found to provide anti-cancer effect.  The authors called this molecule hCG-like inhibitory Products.  This is very premature information.
